The Record

Eleven area players were named to Cal-Hi Sports all-state medium- and small-school softball teams this week.

On the medium schools team are East Union's Alexis Erich (first-team outfield) and Mikayla Bongi (second-team pitcher) and Sierra's Lindsey Walljasper (first-team multi-purpose for hitting and pitching).

Sierra and Walljasper won their second Sac-Joaquin Section Division IV championship in three years, as Calaveras and Cardon, Kappmeyer and company were runners-up. Calaveras won the outright Mother Lode League championship. Escalon was the section's Division V champion and Ripon Christian won Division VII.

CAL LEAGUE BASEBALL

JetHawks 10, Ports 5

At Lancaster, Stockton center fielder Skye Bolt hit a grand slam with one out in the ninth inning, but it was too little, too late for the Ports (45-44 overall, 9-10 second half) in front of 3,954 at The Hangar.

Ports starting pitcher Dalton Sawyer (1-2) struggled and got the loss, allowing seven earned runs on 10 hits in four innings, with two strikeouts and one walk. Bolt, batting leadoff, went 2 for 5, Santiago Chavez went 2 for 4 and Mikey White and Argenis Raga both doubled.

Lancaster (48-41 overall) had 15 hits including eight extra-base hits and three homers.

The Ports have today off and host the Inland Empire 66ers in a four-game series Wednesday through Saturday at Stockton Ballpark. Tracy High graduate Jonah Wesely, a left-handed relief pitcher, plays for the 66ers.
